Houston to the Western Caribbean Norwegian Sun Cruise Reviews

My wife and I took our honeymoon cruise on the beautiful Norwegian Sun. This was my 3rd cruise, but first one on Norwegian. It sailed out of port near Houston. I had hurt my back so we were able to use the handicapped line. From what we could tell, there was a massive line for boarding that looked like it may have taken hours. As it was, we were able to check in fairly painlessly. We had an ...

Just sailed on the NCL Sun 10 day New Year Cruise. Here some general insights that fit well with other posts on this board. Did walk on 2 of my own bottles of vintage wine and 2 bottles of champagne. The Xray machine sniffed it out and I was charged US$ 15 per and given a slip to present when opening at any of the dining rooms. Noticed in the bin (past Xray)that hard booze was being ...

We sailed the Sun out of Houston from 12/29 thru 1/8, traveling with 4 in a cabin (2 adults, 2 children). We had an excellent time on the Sun. The weather was excellent and the seas were smooth. Except for the 2nd to last evening we hit extremely rough seas, 20  25 ft waves. Many people including my wife were sick. We were in a forward cabin so we had quite a ride. Equivalent to sleeping on a ...

This is our fourth cruise. First on NCL. The embarkation process went extremely smoothly. From the time our bus arrived at the Houston Port until the time we were in our cabin was about 10 minutes. We arrived at noon hour and had time for a quick nap. The ship and cabin were in spotless condition. Overall the decor is a little subdued but very functional. The only comment about the food on day ...

This was our third cruise, had previously been on Holland America-mean age 106, Costa-smokers paradise, and now Norwegian Sun. This was the first time we took our 4 children on a cruise and boy did they LOVE it. Such a fabulous kids club that I had to bribe them to get off the boat in Belize! Got their hair braided, even the 9 year old boy- the ladies called him Little White Bow-Wow, and then they ...

Embarkation was in Houston after the hurricane blew New Orleans off the map. At 11:00am NCL still didn't have a line for Suites and or Latitudes members open, after a few minutes my wife ask a NCL about express line for Suites and Latitudes members they quickly moved us into the Library and Game room for our embarkation cards. The library has a number of lite snacks, juice and water for us. In ...

Just returned from a 7-night cruise to the W. Caribbean on the Sun. What a beautiful ship and wonderful cruise! Hurricane Wilma caused us to miss ports at Roatan and Belize, but we stopped at Cozumel and Vera Cruz. I'm not a fan of these ports. . .lots of "tourist junk" to buy and very hot and humid! But they were interesting, especially the excursion we took to the countryside at Vera Cruz. My ...

We are a family of 2 adults & 2 children, aged 4 & 9. This was the first time cruising for my husband and the children, and my 4th time - my first with Norwegian, though. We thoroughly enjoyed the cruise & will definitely be cruising again. After some reviews of the food we were a little concerned about what the quality would be like, but were impressed with the choice, quality and dining ...

Embarkation was a breeze compared to New Orleans. We arrived at 10:30 and after a 30 minute wait, we were the 4th group aboard. There was a separation of Latitudes and non-latitudes members. Our room was not quite ready so we went up to the Garden Cafe for lunch. We went back to the room at 1pm and everything was satisfactory. It was windy upon sail away and dampened the sail away party. We ...
